INTERVIEW EXCERPTS:
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY:
Issue No. 40 is clearly setting up Season 9, and makes it seem like it is going to be far more human-scaled.
JOSS WHEDON:
It will be more like the television show. With the comic, we just sort of said, “Wheee!” Ultimately, “Wheee!” caught up with us in a cavalcade of mythology. It became clear, as it did with the show, that people really liked when Buffy’s adventures reflect what she’s going through in her life [and] what we’re going through in our lives at that age. That was the thing in season 8 that we didn’t tap into as much as I think we ultimately should have.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY:
You did seem to touch on that idea when you, essentially, made Buffy a god with her own idyllic world, and she pretty much rejected it right off the bat.
JOSS WHEDON:
Yeah. I feel like we’re true to the characters. It was just that |
